Suikoden Teo Attacks Suikoden Index : Walkthrough / FAQ

As you get back to the castle, you find out that it is Teo leading the charge. Kasumi of the Rokkaku ninjas is there to inform you and Mathiu on the specifics, she also joins. The time for battle looms, again, make sure Pahn has level 12 weapon and early 30′s levels and the best armor possible.

The war battle itself is impossible to win, and it’s impossible to put a dent in Teo’s army. You’ll go down eventually and have to flee. Alen, Grenseal and Teo are hot on your tail. Pahn will ask to hold them off. If you didn’t build him up, he’s as good as dead. And this isn’t automatic; this is the difference in Pahn living or dying for the rest of the game, so you better save before and get it right. If you mess up, the 108 stars bonus, special ending, blah blah is then unachievable. Even with a built up Pahn this duel isn’t a pushover; it’s probably the toughest duel to win in the entire game. With a level 12 weapon and good defensive armor, you’ll have some room for error, and that should be enough to get you the win. You absolutely HAVE to guess right on his quotes, because even one Desperate Attack mess-up and you’re in trouble.

If Pahn wins, Teo will make Alen stand back and they’ll all retreat. You’ll be back at the castle either way, just with a dead Pahn or a still living Pahn. If you won, congratulations, you just passed the hardest part of the game. Now SAVE. No one will have an answer for those Armored Cavalry though. Head to your bed to rest and talk to Flik the next day. He will remind you of those Fire Spears from long ago at the Secret Factory, but no one knows if that Factory is still around. Bring someone who is boat-fluent (Tai Ho or Gen) and go to the dock. Kamandol will have a high-powered boat ready to go past the north rapids, allowing you to get to Kirov. Before that, let’s do some recruiting.

Back at Scarleticia, bring Milich. Talk to Ivanov and recruit him, and Kasios will just join you upstairs without you needing to ask. Give Ivanov all the paint you’ve accumulated (buy the Paint at the nearby item stores). Now fight around these areas on the World Map until you find a Nameless Urn for Jabba at Rikon. You can recruit him with that (don’t ask for his money!). Now go to Soniere Prison and fight around until you find an Opal. Give this to Esmeralda at the upstairs Inn in Antei. Both of these can take a VERY long time, or they can take no time at all. Depends on how lucky you are.

Anyway with Jabba and Esmeralda, that goes a lot of tedious work. Now go to Antei and talk to Qlon at the entrance to get her to join. This should be about it in this area, since you still can’t get Eikei at Teien. Might as well continue on your way to Kirov, northwest of Lake Toran Castle.

Kirov is a pretty liberal place. Go to the Inn and rest first, then talk to Georges just east of the counter. He’s an “idler” (dealer) and he challenges you to a card game. Pick the lowest amount of matches (5) and just go at it. Very simple game, just pick cards in the middle and it’ll expand towards the exterior. Then, just match up the faces. Buy some Sugar at the item shop in the west and talk to Melodye in the southwest. Can’t get her yet unfortunately. Go in the two houses by the girl washing clothes (Sarah) and check the fires. You’ll taste the stews. Do this in those two houses and return to the center house by the boat port and you’ll see Lester the cook. He’ll join and he’ll be at HQ with Antonio and Marie. Now talk to Sarah the clothes washer and she’ll ask for some soap. Talk to the guy north of her, and he asks for some Soy Sauce. Talk to the guy west of him and he asks for Salt. Jeez. Talk to the girl in the southeast and she’ll ask for a yardstick. Now talk to the guy in the Inn and he’ll ask for some Sugar. Hopefully you bought this at the Item Shop here. Give it to him, then work reverse order, giving each person the item they want. Eventually you’ll get the Soap and you can give it to Sarah and recruit her.

Time to go north to Kalekka. There are tough monsters here so be rested. The first house north of you lies Leon Silverburg. Can’t do anything with that fool yet. Go east a little and enter that place, grabbing the Earth Rune Piece and leaving going north. Enter the bar area and talk to the lone townsman. Get the Old Book Volume 8 to the west of him and leave. Go in the building immediately west for an Antique (? Painting). North of this building is a guy with some plants; DO NOT STEP on the plants, otherwise he won’t join you. If you didn’t trample his plants, Blackman joins. Coincidentally, you can walk all over his little field once you recruit him (and each seed says “Snap” “Crackle” Pop”). East of this is the Sound Crystal, which you must give to Melodye to get her to join. Once she does you can give her your Sound Settings and she’ll change them. That’s it for Kalekka, go north and exit out, leaving towards the Secret Factory.

Upon entering the Secret Factory you’ll see Ronnie Bell and Ledon / Boss Kessler. After the exchange, talk to those two and they’ll join. Enter the main building and go to the northeast to recruit Kage. He asks for 20,000 until the end of the war, but you gotta pay it. Trust me, it’s worth it, he’s a solid fighter and another ninja for those ever-important war battles. Get the Window Setting 0 and talk to Ronnie and Mose, and you’ll take the Fire Spears over to Kirov. Tai Ho has a friend named Kun To that can take all the Spears over to your castle. Return to Kirov now and enter that center building (after recruiting Melodye). Kun To will borrow your boats and decides to join as he talks to your group outside. Now you have the boat and spears.

Before I return to Lake Toran Castle, I’ll usually stop by the Pirate’s Hideout where Anji and friends are. You can actually do this much earlier but now is a solid time in terms of the level you are at. I had Hellion with and her Mother Earth Rune (Earthquake spell) absolutely demolished these three. They join afterwards, and then it’s time to return to Lake Toran Castle with those Fire Spears and take out Teo!

This war battle is easy. Just use Mathiu and Apple’s Charge boosting tactic, and then use your best Charge groups. Lepant, Pirates and the Bandits should be enough to take out Teo’s group. Afterwards, your beaten dad will come up to you and challenge you to a duel! You must acceptâ€¦.his health is halfway gone, so you have that advantage. Realize that you’ve defeated Teo before with Pahn with no handicap, so you can do it with a more leveled-up hero. Teo is generally pretty aggressive and uses Desperate Attacks like nuts, so do whatever you can to beat him. Afterwards he dies and tells Alen and Grenseal to join your cause.
